Chapter 393: Make money, stars and resources!
In the old emperor's bedroom, the current emperor of the Sherman family, who had not picked up a pen for a long time, sat behind the desk, carefully tracing the artistic fonts above.
A maid stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty."
"How did the meeting go?"
"About an hour ago, the situation reached a stalemate. Now we have started the discussion during the intermission. The military and the Council of Elders have not been able to reach a settlement for their differences of opinion. The plan proposed by White Ghost has been supported by the military, but the elders do not seem to want White Ghost to have too much say."
"What white ghost?"
The old emperor looked up at the maid and said, "He is Daphne's fiancé, my knight commander."
"Yes, it is the respected Lord Knight. The elders and nobles have united to resist his plan." The maid quickly changed her tone.
The old emperor put down his pen and wondered, "What is his plan? Isn't he just going to a hearing? How can he come up with a plan to resist the Zerg?"
The maid thought about it carefully, organized the words briefly, and said quickly:
"The disagreement between the military and the elders lies in the preset position of the battle line. The military puts the honor of soldiers first and wants to make full use of all the firepower points of the empire as much as possible to protect more people. The Council of Elders tends to be conservative and believes that the Imperial Star Circle and the Pan-Imperial Star Circle Economic Zone should be protected first."
The old emperor frowned slightly.
He whispered, "The businesses of these elders are all within the Imperial Star Circle. They must want to protect their own interests first. The military has never let me down. Sigh... Once the insect tide comes, I don't know how many people will die. What is Hanton's plan?"
"The Knight Commander proposed another idea, which is to protect the people on the planets where they originally lived from the threat of insect plagues while protecting as many planets as possible, or to minimize their exposure to insect plagues."
The maid thought for a moment:
"This involves several key technologies, the main one being biometric information shielding. Currently, there are less than ten high-tech companies in our empire that have this technology, and these technologies may not really work.
"In addition, the Knight Commander also provided supporting plans, such as the construction of a shelter on the planet itself and the implementation of the population migration plan."
The old emperor asked, "Hanton wants the people to hide in the shelter? What kind of brilliant idea is that?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you saw the problem with this plan at a glance," the maid said softly, "Unless we can really find the technical means to block the insect swarm from exploring human life individuals, otherwise... the Knight-General has really screwed up."
"Alas, it's normal that the empire's most courageous warriors don't understand technology."
The old emperor laughed, then frowned slightly:
"Doesn't he have an ancient technological warship? This guy came up with this plan. Could it be that he actually has the relevant technical means?"
The maid blinked and reminded, "Your Majesty, if the Knight Commander really possessed this technology but did not use it during the previous insect swarm, it would be easy for his heroic reputation to turn negative."
As soon as she finished speaking, another maid came hurriedly over, bowed, and said quickly:
"Your Majesty, we have just received news that a well-established technology company called Imperial Glory has announced more than 160 patents and is currently holding a press conference to launch a bio-information shielding technology called 'Biogenic Energy Shield'.
“This technology is said to be reverse-engineered based on the White Ghost gene sequence, and the technology company will ask White Ghost to be its spokesperson.
"According to our investigation, White Ghost owns 5% of the shares, and the equity change was completed about three years ago."
The old emperor was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Look," he sighed softly, with some emotion in his eyes, "The dragon slayer will eventually become an evil dragon. I used him to suppress the imperial nobles, and the result was that after suppressing the old forces, he transformed into a new force."
The two reporters from the Tentacle Organization lowered their heads and dared not say anything more.
"Go tell those guys in the Council of Elders," the old emperor said calmly, "If Hanton's plan proves to be feasible, promote it vigorously. Is the Imperial Glory founded by aristocrats?"
"Yes, sir, it is the property of Prince Kinov."
"Have him hand over the control of this technology group to the military, and have him hand over half of his future profits to the Imperial Star Resources Management Bureau. Then, I will randomly reward his children and grandchildren with some honorary positions."
The old emperor said calmly:
"It's not a good thing for this kind of key technology to fall into the hands of my useless brother. He might sell it to the New Federation."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Not bad," the old emperor said softly, "If we can save tens of billions of lives this time, that would be a truly commendable achievement."
Two galactic hours later, the Empire's top preparatory meeting to deal with the Zerg swarm came to an end.
The meeting formally approved the newly revised preparatory plan.
All information during the entire meeting was kept highly confidential, and the Imperial Military concealed the area where the defense line against the insect swarm was set up.
…
So tiring.
After Boss Yang walked out of the projection matrix, he couldn't help but yawn several times in succession.
Princess Daphne brought warm tea and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work. I didn't expect this meeting to last so long. I heard from the discussion at the Tentacle Organization that you played a key role again."
"Letting these nobles get involved is a big problem in itself," Yang Ming muttered. "To fight against the space Zerg, it is enough to have the military to coordinate. We should integrate the private armies of those nobles."
Daphne smiled and shook her head: "This is how the Empire is. The interests of the nobility are deeply rooted."
Yang Ming stretched himself, walked to the sofa and lay down, muttering, "Is there any news outside?"
“Not yet.”
"I'll take a rest for a while. If there's any news, let me know," Yang Ming said. "Oh, by the way, if Prince Kinov sends a communication request, wake me up."
Daphne frowned slightly: "Do you think of me as your assistant?"
"Hmm?" Yang Ming looked up at her, "If you don't want to, I can order your maid around."
"No need," Daphne smiled, "I'll go change into a business suit so I can look more professional."
Yang Ming: …
Oh my god, is she going to do the black stockings, skirt and high heels set again?
He is not a saint, let alone a eunuch. Daphne's daily idleness always tempts him, and it is easy for him to flexibly lower his bottom line.
Especially last time, when Daphne put on her sparkly performance costume, Yang Ming almost couldn't help himself.
Of course, it was just almost.
Keeping Daphne hanging was just part of the plan.
About two galactic hours later, the sleeping Yang Ming was awakened by Daphne, who was wearing a pair of white gauze gloves and brought a projected bust of Prince Kinov.
"Thank you, Daphne."
The old prince said cheerfully, and then hurriedly asked: "Can we talk alone?"
Daphne smiled and said, "Of course, but uncle, this is the palace, please be careful with your wording and expressions."
"Of course, of course, that's where I grew up too."
Prince Kinosuke spoke gently, and then watched Daphne leave the living room of the bedroom with enchanting steps.
Yang Ming smiled and asked, "My Lord Prince , what's going on?"
"You're right, Hamton, oh my!"
Prince Kinov lowered his voice and praised:
"This is the first time I've felt such high regard! The highest commander and the great elder of the military both surrendered to me, and those guys from the Imperial Star Resources Management Bureau who were originally arrogant almost knelt in front of me.
"it's great.
“Your Majesty has given us many honors, and the military has directly moved into Imperial Glory. The technology has been kept strictly under the military’s control. However, the profits from the more than one million products we produced ahead of schedule will still be 100% given to us.
“This is several times higher than the profits my territory has made in the past hundred years combined!
"You are so powerful, Hanton. You have arranged everything perfectly. Oh, I really... I feel deeply guilty for offending you in the first place."
Yang Ming laughed and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, let's stop while we are ahead."
"Yes, it is."
Prince Kinov immediately said:
"In order to deal with the upcoming insect crisis, I will donate a quarter of the proceeds to the Imperial Military in your and my name.
“Do you need to buy a few trending searches?”
Yang Ming smiled and shook his head: "It's better to be low-key when it comes to making money."
"Yes, we should keep a low profile."
Yang Ming chatted with the old prince for a while, and the two of them said goodbye reluctantly, as if they were old friends.
After hanging up the call, Yang Ming grinned slightly.
all the best!
The Empire is still the same Empire. When they were two galaxies apart, they had already completed the transfer of a key technology.
To some extent, the empire kept nobles just like raising fish in a pond; when the fish became fat or the empire ran out of food, they would catch the fish and slaughter a few.
This is certainly not a good thing for Yang Ming, but it is not a bad thing either.
This technology was developed by Hera's scientific research team based on the biological shielding device given by the mechanical Twilight Examiner, and its performance can reach 90% of the original.
——This technology has been verified for a long time at the Dark Star Base No. 3, and has been used many times on exploration ships sent by Dark Star to the edge of the Milky Way.
Now, with the insect swarm coming, Yang Ming and Lu have already planned how to make a fortune from the human society in the Milky Way.
The first step is now underway, which is to lay out the empire and then actively give up this market.
The second step is for the Empire to verify the feasibility of the technology and ensure that the news will be conveyed to the New Federation. Some technical experts from the Empire will be captured by the New Federation CIA.
In the third step, relevant technology companies will appear within the territory of the Free United States. Forerunner No. 4 will play a key role and use the Free United States as a platform to harvest assets from most political entities in the galaxy.
This is a life-saving technique.
Yang Ming still has a conscience. He will not raise the threshold of this technology too high, and he will also use Lu's ability in the online world to prevent middlemen from making a profit from the price difference.
It will be largely unrealistic for other regimes to reverse engineer this technology in the next five to ten years.
After the insect tide passes, these technologies can be directly popularized.
The Zerg will evolve, and if this technology is conquered by the Zerg, it will lose its value.
No matter what, let’s make some big money first!
According to Lu's calculations and predictions, in about ten months, the assets of the Molly Miss Group will increase sixty times, and the resources, influence and power that Dark Star can obtain in human society will be greatly enhanced.
Although Boss Yang no longer has to worry about food for eight billion people, money and resources are naturally things that more the better.
Well, it would be more reliable if the Molly Miss Group hides deeper.
Otherwise, it would arouse public anger and be jointly targeted by various political systems in the galaxy, and Lu would not be able to bear it.
"well."
Yang Ming sighed softly and began to worry about when Faya's game would be launched.
The greatest tragedy in the Milky Way is:
As a pioneer, he has prepared all favorable conditions. As long as the eight billion people of Earth civilization are sent to the Milky Way, he can provide money, resources, planets, technology, a complete supply system, and sufficient military protection to help Earth quickly integrate into the Milky Way family. It won't be a problem for Earth to become one or more independent political entities.
But the Earth cannot pass the civilization assessment game.
Now you...
No solution.
Yang Ming slowly lay down on the sofa. When he thought of the scene of the Earth's failure to advance, he felt like a salted fish without dreams.
"Honey, what's wrong?"
Daphne appeared barefoot not far away and asked gently.
Yang Ming waved his hands, turned over silently, and continued to sigh.
…
Things are going smoothly.
With Youlu in charge behind the scenes, Yang Ming basically doesn't have to worry about anything. He just strolls around the Imperial Star every day, attending some military seminars and aristocratic gatherings.
In the past month, Daphne took him to several gatherings of the Sherman family's elite ruling factions, and Yang Ming was able to initially integrate into the core power circle of the empire.
Bio-shielding technology has a new name - ghost shield.
Although it sounds like a technology that hinders the birth of life, in fact, this technology can really save lives in insect swarms.
Currently, Yang Ming and his team's plan has advanced to the stage where the Ghost Cover is successfully stolen by the New Federation, and the Free United States has made all preparations.
Forerunner No. 4 can also gain huge benefits from this "galaxy-wide" harvest. He cares more about it than Yang Ming and Lu. He also uses the huge network of influence he has developed within the Free United States for "real business" for the first time.
A large amount of resources will soon be controlled by the law;
Lu Na's constantly upgraded mainframe server hardware network will usher in a stronger growth rate. It is expected that in a hundred years, it may be able to challenge Xiao Li's existence.
Yang Ming was on the Imperial Star, actually investigating another more important matter.
Does Levi Sherman, the founding emperor of the Sherman Empire , still exist in some form on the Imperial Star?
The technologies that Levi Sherman brought to Mechanical Twilight were "biology" and "mechanics". Although they were not as specialized as "mechanics" and "evolution", they also had some technologies that Yang Ming and the law firm did not have.
Yang Ming had no idea how abnormal the biotechnology of the artificial intelligence machine Twilight could be.
This investigation is destined to be very difficult. Even if Yang Ming can now get in touch with the elite ruling group of the Sherman family, he will not be able to obtain much useful information.
At the same time, another more important matter forced Yang Ming to be temporarily distracted.
Emilia's birthday is coming.
Although Yang Ming could not return to Yilando Star to appear at Emilia's birthday party, he also carefully prepared a gift for Emilia.
On a morning calculated based on the rotation period of the star Yilando, Yang Ming left the surface of the Dixing star and returned to his Dongfeng in the name of conducting gene stabilization treatment.
——The Dongfeng had previously docked at the spaceport of Dixing without any cover, and by the way it became a famous check-in spot for internet celebrities.
The Dongfeng set sail and temporarily left the spaceport, sailed out of the outer identification zone of the Imperial Star, and started cruising mode on the business line outside the Imperial Star.
Afterwards, Yang Ming entered the medical cabin in a proper manner, put on a virtual helmet, and used his own black technology to connect to the simulated robot he had reserved in the Luofeng fleet without any trace.
'He' was on a transport ship, entering the atmosphere of the planet Elando.
Yang Ming carefully felt this new virtual system.
Without any sense of delay, the simulated robot can give him an almost completely realistic sense of touch. He can even hear his own heartbeat and feel the blood flowing, as if it were really an avatar, a life that is completely controlled by him.
This black technology...if it is promoted, it will definitely make a lot of money.
Online prostitution, cough, online virtual sexual care services, have always been a highly profitable industry in the galaxy!
"Boss! Kiss!"
Lu's miniature image popped up in the corner of the spacecraft control interface in front of Yang Ming, with his feet raised, hands stretched out and his eyes winked.
Yang Ming also enjoyed watching it.
This guy is increasingly understanding the cuteness of older men.
